mod_http_oauth2: Add role selector to consent page List includes all roles available to the user, if more than one. Defaults to either the first role in the scope string or the users primary role. Earlier draft listed all roles, but having options that can't be selected is bad UX and the entire list of all roles on the server could be long, and perhaps even sensitive. Allows e.g. picking a role with fewer permissions than what might otherwise have been selected. UX wise, doing this with more checkboxes or possibly radio buttons would have been confusion and/or looked messier. Fixes the previous situation where unselecting a role would default to the primary role, which could be more permissions than requested.

Introduction
------------

There are various reasons to prefer web registration instead of
"in-band" account registration over XMPP. For example the lack of
CAPTCHA support in clients and servers.

Details
-------

mod\_register\_web has Prosody serve a web page where users can sign up
for an account. It implements reCAPTCHA to prevent automated sign-ups
(from bots, etc.).

Configuration
-------------

The module is served on Prosody's default HTTP ports at the path
`/register_web`. More details on configuring HTTP modules in Prosody can
be found in our [HTTP documentation](http://prosody.im/doc/http).

To configure the CAPTCHA you need to supply a 'captcha\_options' option:

        captcha_options = {
          recaptcha_private_key = "12345";
          recaptcha_public_key = "78901";
        }

The keys for reCAPTCHA are available in your reCAPTCHA account, visit
[reCAPTCHA](https://developers.google.com/recaptcha/) for more info.

If no reCaptcha options are set, a simple built in captcha is used.

Customization
-------------

Copy the files in mod_register_web/templates/ to a new directory. Edit them,
and set `register_web_template = "/path/to/your/custom-templates"` in your
config file.
